What is the fit like in an LS-4 for a 6'2" 215 lb. pilot?

I'm 6' 3", 200lbs, and I flew my LS-4 (X3) for many years. It *was* a
tight fit, but do-able. My knees were high enough in the air so the
backs of my legs weren't supported, and over time, this caused
problems. At about age 58 or so, I started noticing that I had to
stand for a few seconds beside the glider before I could walk after a
long X-C.

The very best glider for a tall person is the Ventus 2bx with the
extended nose. I have one now, and it is *wonderful* ;-)
